PythOnline
has 'acquired' the Daily Llama and its webmaster, Hans ten Cate, in
a move to expand Pythonline's offerings of timely and behind-the-scenes
information to fans.

Hans ten Cate from the excellent Daily Llama has agreed, at
gun point, to join forces with me to assist PythOnline to become the
mother of all websites, anounced Darryn Hall, who has kept PythOnline's
heartbeat going after it was abandoned two years ago by commercial backer
7th Level, Inc.

I'm so glad, wrote Eric Idle of the Daily Llama's agreement
to join PythOnline. It will be in wise hands.

PythOnline will be maintained by Darryn and Hans under the auspices
of the Python Office in London. PythOnline is still, first and foremost,
the official Internet home for Monty Python and the troupe's founding
members. As such, fans can still go to www.pythonline.com
to find news, announcements and general "hello's" directly
from the Pythons themselves.

There are lots of surprises ahead and new features will be added to
PythOnline gradually. In the near term, "New Stuff" will link
to The Daily Llama for the latest Monty Python news taken from today's
headlines and from the Pythons' waste paper baskets. Longer term, expect
lots and lots of content, news, contests, give-aways and surprises.

Stay tuned, said Darryn, PythOnline is about to become
the ultimate site.
